6.3 Main line ohase inversion.<br />
The sonic quality of your GOLD CUBE may be slightly improved<br />
if the main AC line is properly connected. Try to invert the plug<br />
of your amplifier, using a special adapter.<br />
We recommend that you proceed caref ully to try this. You must<br />
do it in combination with the speaker polarity and/or with absolute<br />
phase switching to be sure of the result.<br />

SAFETY FEATURES<br />
The <strong>GOLDMUND</strong> GOLD CUBE amplifier provides very sophisticated<br />
features to protectthe amplifierandthe speaker against all<br />
kind of mishandle or comoonent failure.<br />
Protection against DC.<br />
The GOLD CUBE is a DC-coupled amplifier. lf the associated<br />
preamplifier is badly designed or defective (often true for the<br />
tube preamps), the speaker could be damaged. The detection<br />
circuit of the GOLD CUBE is totally immune to any sonic effect<br />
but will immediately switch off the speaker if such a malf unction<br />
occurs.<br />
The speaker will be immediately and automatically reconnected<br />
as soon as the perturbation disappears.<br />
Protection against HF oscillations.<br />
In the same way, the speaker will be disconnected if a large<br />
amount of high frequency oscillation is present and shows a<br />
danger forthe tweeters, even if these frequencies remain unnoticed.<br />
The amplifier returns to normal if the oscillation disappears.<br />
Protection against short-circuits.<br />
lf one output is short-circuited by accident and the current<br />
becomes too high, one of the rail fuse may blow.<br />
In this case, the small LED located at the top ofthe defective fuse<br />
lid will glow.<br />
To replace the defective fuse, switch the amplifier off for 1O<br />
minutes f irst. Then open the top f use cover with a coin or a large<br />
screwdriver. The f use loader is then accessible under the golden<br />
cover and must be removed by turning it off with a screwdriver.<br />
